He is sure to have a heart attack if he sees that no one has donated while he was away...

I'm sure there are some people here and there who wrote here/thought to themselves that they would donate by the end of the year. Well, it's almost that time! wink

Haha truando,
You're changing my life, bro:D

When discussing a topic on facebook, I just had to write it like this:

"Now were getting closer to the real meaning of culture to ourselves, Anyone...? A couple of words?"

Thank you Miyumera, somukeru, mvdham and Proxx!

I checked the wire transfers for December: it's 110 € instead of 95 I previously wrote, so +15 to the grand total.

So updated total is 1180+15 (correction) +10+50+15+11 = 1281 €!

OMG we beat the 1250 goal yay!  Hell, if you guys reach 1450 € by DEC 31 11:59/2010, I'll donate 51€ just to say we over tripled our original goal.   You might want to call this the wulfgar challenge 2.0 XD.

thanks for the complements smile, positivity always helps loosen the wallet tongue.  I guess that's what happens when you work Christmas eve/day, boxing day, new years eve/day, (the wallet loosens) tongue.  With all the 2.5x money i will be making during those days, I could either spend it on a new flat screen Tv or I could use it as a challenge for my kanji friends to donate to RTK so Fabrice can keep this site up and make it better... I choose the latter smile.  BTW if we do reach €1450 in the allotted time limit, I think with my donations alone, he could buy his tablet big_smile.

So, we have €169 to go and less than 61 hours and 30 minutes to get there.   A couple of bucks?  Anyone...? big_smile

OK, I start with another €10. €159 to go...

Who's next?

Wait a moment, wulfgar, which timezone? Canada time? could you specify? Please let me know what time you see above this post here, then I know what time it is where you live.

Here it says 11:42 AM

Thanks, wulfgar.

Folks, time is running short. Please do donate, it's extremely important to reach our goal of €1,450. We need €159 to reach it.

Any amount helps!

Thank you!

This is big, you guys! Please donate to reach the goal of €1,450! As you may have seen, Wulfgar has proposed a second challenge, so as long as we have the total of €1,450, he will donate €50 - getting us to €1,500.

Is there anyone who donates monthly? If so, it may be a good idea to move January's donation to December in order to help reach the goal! (or simply make it an addition to your January donation wink)

Thank you again, Wulfgar!

Thank you wulfgar! This is going through the roof!

ROFL. I knew you'd do that!

So we have a final target of 1450 € for 31 December 2010, midnight (PST I think).

That's good. There's gotta be an end to every story. The world just wouldn't be the same otherwise. It would be supported on the back of giant elephants, which themselves would be standing on the carapace of a giant turtle drifting in space... something like a Terry Pratchett novel. Hmm...

Joking aside, I'm very grateful for the response everyone's shown so far and am happy whether we reach the wulfgar 2.0 challenge or not smile

The awesome response has bolstered my confidence honestly and I hope that will show in turn with awesome developments in 2011 (I will post my 2011 wishes/plans related to the website after the holidays).

With that said, back to mathematics:

truando +10 €
J.C.     + 10 €  (forum member, didn't post here)
bertoni  +20 €

So we are at 1281 € +40 € = 1321 €,  and 129 € away from wulfgar's target!

PS: There are two requests for wire donations 27 and 28 Dec, they may complete by tomorrow so I'll check and update the total. If they don't arrive tomorrow they probably won't until after the New Year weekend, Mon. January 3.
